DATE: April 8, 1992
1 SUBJ: Award of Bids for Minnewashta Parkway Upgrade
Project No. 90-15
1
On Tuesday, March 31, 1992, bids were received and opened for the Minnewashta Parkway
1 Street and Storm Drainage Improvement Project No. 90-15. Nine bids were received in all
with the difference between the low bid and high bid being only 11 %. The project was bid
with one alternate for paving an 8 foot walkway /trail versus a 6 foot trail. The average
increase cost associated with the wider trail section amounted to approximately $40,000 per
bid. Additional tree loss would also be incurred with the wider trail section. The low total
base bid (6 foot trail) for the project was submitted by Imperial Developers at $1,338,534.40.
1 The engineer's estimate for the project was $1,648,178. The low bid is approximately 19%
less than the engineer's estimate.
1 Imperial Developers has performed satisfactorily on previous projects within the city. It is
therefore recommended that the Minnewashta Parkway Street and Storm Drainage
1 Improvement Project No. 90-15 base bid implementing a 6 foot wide trail be awarded to
Imperial Developers in the amount of $1,338,534.40.
